Things that seem disconnected but aren’t. The thirteen bullet points below are the issues we will first notice as the general food supply chain begins show signs of vulnerability. This outline explains why it is happening and how long it can be expected.
Everywhere you look you keep running into this from different sources. I've conducted my own informal poll of my friends and it is a problem. It seems to vary by region.
ReplyDeleteFirst thing on the list: frozen hash browns missing - for the first time - from my local supermarket for over 2 weeks. Clerks have no idea why no deliveries.
ReplyDeleteI haven't been able to find anchovies for months. Everything else is pretty much available here.
ReplyDeleteTry fish sauce in the oriental food section. Its anchovy juice.
DeleteLocal stores are low on a number of major items. Checked Topeka, it's even worse.
ReplyDeleteCanned cat food aisles, 2 stores, 2 days apart. It's a thing here in WV.

All the walmarts within 100km have no dry dog food except the oldroy brand crap.

local food sources seem more reliable to me
ReplyDeleteWent by a place yesterday, grocery store but heavy on baking supplies and deli.
Shelfs full of 50 lb bags of flour and sugar. 5 and 10 lb bags of every grain and flour I have ever seen.
Prices looked pre-pandemic on most things
So I think stores closer to the source will be ok thru all that is obviously coming our way.
Within 10 miles of me in any direction are 5 farms selling beef, 8 family farm stands in front yards that I have been to so far.
